Fans eager for Hades 2's arrival on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 can look forward to positive updates from the recent Xbox Partner Preview event held on Thursday. Developed by Supergiant Games, this roguelite action RPG will launch on those platforms, along with Xbox PC and Xbox Cloud Gaming, beginning April 14. The title will also join the Xbox Game Pass library at launch.
The complete edition of Hades 2 became available on PC and Nintendo Switch in September following more than a year in Steam early access. It emerged as one of the top titles of 2025.
In this installment, players take control of Melinoë, the sibling of the first game's lead character, Zagreus. Her abilities include an extended dash, a sprint option, and an emphasis on wide-area strikes rather than distant shots. The experience features challenging encounters with bosses across dual storylines, companion animals, various customizable armaments, and intricate romantic entanglements.
